Anyone who has camped in Monterey County knows that every campsite in the region is enviable in one way or another. This photo taken at Prewitt Ridge in Big Sur is just one of the many amazing campsites awaiting those adventurers willing to find it.

Located in the Los Padres National Forest, Prewitt Ridge is not for the faint of the heart. The site is a bit difficult to get on the one lane and badly-paved Nacimiento-Fergusson Road. Also note that there are no reservations, no toilets, and no running water but the incredible views certainly seem to make up for it!
